Operating instructions
Read all information before proceeding with any installation.
The information will help you install your feeder properly and avoid problems.
IF YOUR POOL OR SPA HAS COPPER PLUMBING DO NOT INSTALL.
This will damage the feeder. NOTE: If heaters are used, a Fireman’s Switch
or equivalent must be installed to prevent possible damage and improper
operation of check valve and other equipment subject to heat damage.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
NOTE: Feeder should be installed above the water level.
Make sure all pumps and timer switches are OFF. The feeder is designed for
permanent installation in the return line of the pool or spa and must always be
installed after the heater, pool cleaner, valves, etc. If there is no heater then
install the feeder after the filter and all other equipment. Note: Heater and other
equipment may be damaged by highly chlorinated water.
If the pool/spa is plumbed with 2” PVC pipe, make sure the pump, heater,
and filter all have 2” inlet and outlet fittings. Glue 2” PVC pipe into inlet union.
Continue with 2” PVC pipe on the outlet side.
When plumbing a pool/spa combo where the plumbing and equipment is 2” and
the feeder is installed on the pool return line after the diverter valve with a portion
of the water going to the spa, install a minimum section of 6” x 1.5” PVC pipe
directly into the inlet side of the feeder using the 1.5” unions. Continue with
2” PVC pipe on the outlet side of the feeder. This will compensate for the water
being diverted.
When plumbing 90 degree elbows directly into the feeder inlet, it may cause
turbulence inside the elbow which prevents water from entering the feeder.
A minimum of 6” PVC pipe should be installed between the elbow and the inlet
of the feeder.
When using 1.5” PVC pipe, follow instructions above but glue into 1.5” unions,
making sure arrows on feeder point the direction of the water flow returning to
the pool/spa.
Use only PVC cement. Follow the directions on the cement label.
Allow to dry.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS:
Fill the feeder with water making sure to bleed out any entrapped air in any of
the lines. To ensure maximum effectiveness, before starting the feeder, the pool
should be properly conditioned and the residual should be 1.0 to 1.5 ppm.
Consult your local dealer for water conditioning information in your area.
1. Remove cap of feeder and fill with proper size tablets. (For pools: 1” or 3”
diameter tablets. For spas: 1” tablets)
2. If more chemical and a faster dissolve rate is desired, install the chemical
feeder tube (#9 in diagram on page 2). The elbow of the feeder tube will fit into
the outlet hole near the inside bottom of unit (See diagram on page 2). If less

chemical is desired, remove the chemical feeder tuber.
3. Fill with water.
4. Replace cap making sure o-ring is clean, lubricated, and in place.
5. Turn on pump and timer switches for a minimum of 6 to 8 hours. The water
level inside chlorinator will be 3 – 5 inches under normal running conditions.
6. Adjust the control valve (clockwise for more chemical; counter clockwise for
less chemical) according to the size of the pool/spa. Use a test kit to determine
the chemical residual. It is recommended that the chemical residual be checked
daily for the first five days. Note: Hot weather, high water temperature, and
increased use will cause the pool/spa to use more chemical. Increase the feed
rate a few days in advance when possible. The valve settings may require
changes depending on the conditions.
RECHARGING THE FEEDER:
1. Turn control valve to the closed position (counter clockwise).
SHUT OFF PUMP.
2. Wait one minute allowing the water and fumes to drain from the feeder.
3. Leave the control valve closed and turn on the pump. (The check valve will
prevent water from entering the feeder).
4. Remove cap and fill with tablets.
5. Replace cap making sure o-ring is clean, lubricated, and in place.
(Hand tighten only).
6. Open control valve (clockwise) to original setting.
WINTERIZING THE FEEDER:
This chlorinator has a drain plug located on the bottom for easy draining of the
unit. Follow procedures of normal winterizing to winterize.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:
1. If the feeder does not provide enough chemical residual when using 3” tablets,
switch to 1” tablets. Smaller tablets erode faster producing more residual.
2. If the glass lid becomes cloudy, turn off the feeder using the shut off
instructions above (RECHARGING FEEDER). Remove the lid and wipe clean.
If it remains cloudy, it will clear itself if left exposed to sunlight and fresh air.
DO NOT leave chlorinator open without the lid installed. If the lid must be
left off to clear up, a replacement must be installed.
3. The grate (#1 in diagram on page 2) is designed to be removed easily when
chlorine is gummed up inside the unit at the bottom of the chlorinator.
The chlorine residue needs to be dislodged or it may affect the performance if
left unattended. The grate helps keep pieces of the tablets from gumming up the
outlet. The grate may come out of its resting place when tablets are added to
the chlorinator. Be sure to check its position after each recharging.
